Yesterday Will and Jada Pinkett Smith took their kids Jayden and Willow to New Village Academy for their very first day of school. Just like normal parents, right?
Only difference is most parents didn't actually (a) buy the school, (b) determine it's curriculum and (c) arrive at school greeted by Scientology protesters.
Yes, closet-Scientologist Willie splashed out $1 million for the school's three-year lease. And in exchange, he got a hefty say in how the pre-K through sixth grade kids would be taught. Even trade.

I would repeat the definition of 'study technology', except it makes about as little sense as all the other Scientology principles. Which is to say, it's *bullshit* subliminal message * bullshit * subliminal message * bullshit * subliminal message * bullshit...
